Hilton Honors Program Changes Effective

In this January, Hilton Honors announced program changes that will take place on April 2, 2018

And the program has been reminding members by email this week about them.

The main program downgrade for most is the discontinuance of Double Dip where members were able to choose between earning additional 5 Hilton Honors points per USD charges or airline miles in addition to base points.

The changes:

1. Status Gifting

Diamond member that reach 60 nights can gift Gold status that will be upgraded to Diamond if the gifter reaches 100 nights within a year.

2. Rollover Nights

Gold, Silver & Diamond members will have the nights consumed over their elite status rollover to the following year starting from 2018.

Members will receive a special additional bonus of 30,000 points when they hit 60 nights within a calendar year.

4.Double Dip Gone

Hilton Honors has decided to discontinue Double Dip altogether that has been the only program that has allowed member to earn both points and miles at the same time.

Instead of earning five additional Hilton Honors points per USD, the member has been able to earn 1 airline miles with number of partners.

Hilton Honors had never ending promotions with airlines from double to quadruple miles that you could combine with bonus points offers. You could earn 3 to 4 airlines miles per USD spend (often much more) in addition to the bonus points if you followed LoyaltyLobby.
